Beat[1] (ビート,Bīto?) is an enemy that appears in Sonic Adventure. It is a mass-produced, mite-based Badnik model, radio-controlled enemy created by Dr. Eggman.[2]
Beats closely resemble mite arthropods with pink metallic shells and gray underbellies. They have a pair of sharp needles on their bodies and crawl around with black and yellow-striped engine attachments on each side of them.
When the player enters such halls, all local Beats will crawl slowly towards Sonic, disable themselves, and then self-destruct on impact. However, the player can defeat them without causing them to explode by using the Spin Jump, Homing Attack or Light Speed Attack. Alternatively, the player can ignore them to proceed with the Action Stage, as defeating all the Beats in one place takes a long time. Eventually, these robots will stop spawning after enough are defeated.
